NOTES
To live forever is one of man's oldest aspirations-and it might be become a reality. With advances in medicine and new gene research, human life span could extend into hundreds of years. But, is this life extension a good thing? "Cheating Death" examines every side of the dilemma of aging and longevity, from improvements in diet and medicine to the grander promises of science to the consequences of incredibly long life
